What is a good FLAC player for iOS? More specifically for iPhone 7 Plus. I did a search, but the posts were really old. Hell, it's almost 2017!!! I've been slowly getting away from mp3 320 and have a collection of metal FLAC music. Now, I finally have a phone with decent storage. What works well?

Thanks, I searched the app store for FLAC and only found cheesy $$$ players. I use Foobar at home, didn't realize they had an app.

Question, how do I load FLAC files on my iPhone? I don't want to double up songs since I have everything in mp3 320 for iTunes. I put the mp3's on my iPod classic 160Gb. I do not want those same mp3's on my phone, only the FLAC.

Yeah, still haven't figured out how to load the FLAC into Foobar2000 on my phone.

Haven't tried the Foobar player, but most of them you have to go through iTunes, look under apps (the ones that you can download files to will be at the bottom) and drag files there.
 
I haven't liked any of the players I tried, so I am working on my own app. Also created a Windows program to sync files with it. The player works great for my purposes, not sure if I will try to publish it though. $99/year to put an app on the app store plus 30%, no wonder there isn't a large number of options.

I finally figured it out. The Foobar mobile app is far from pretty, but it works well.

While it is great, that you personally figured it out, it would be more than usuable in this forum if you could share your experience on how you managed to import FLAC into Foobar on iOS.

I believe I found most of the info on this website.
